Dave Davies Album

D. Davies

Whose foolin' who ?
Whose foolin' who ? Well I can't believe my eyes.

High wire, fire wide, stressed-in, denigrated
Bush whacked, side-tracked, tired of being manipulated
Brain dead, paranoid, the mutant factor's activated
Acting out this automated.

Forked tongues everywhere, can't believe a word they're sayin'
In the news, on the net, channel hopping, mind popping
Trying hard to find solutions, constant media pollution
Mind control robot standing in their face?

Where do I look, where can I turn ?
Always conquering the world, is there nothing we have learned ?
I look in the mirror and what do I see ?
Is it really my reflection or a channel on TV ?

Whose foolin' who ?
Whose foolin' who ? Well I can't believe my eyes
Whose foolin' who ?

Electromagnetic vibrations fill the air
Contaminate my mind, confusion and despair
I can't tell what's going on most of the time
I'm full of desires and I don't even mind.

Pounded, grounded, frowned upon, isolated
Sensory overload, not what I anticipated
Totally drained, well I'm down on my knees
Existence in denial, I'm losing my mind.

What do you see when nothing is real ?
Are you a dream or just a figment of my mind ?
Of a chemical reaction running around it inside ?
Truth is not what it used to be.

Whose foolin' who ?
Whose foolin' who ? Well I can't believe my eyes
Whose foolin' who ?

Whose foolin' who ?
Whose foolin' who ?
Whose foolin' who ?
If you're fooling yourself, then whose foolin' who ?

Can you trust what you see ?
What you hear, what you read in the papers, on TV ?
CNN, CBS, UPN, TBN, when will it ever end ?
Always living in the red, are we the living dead ?
This is living hell, strange little world that's all in your head.

What do you see when nothing is real ?
Are you a dream or just a figment of my mind ?
Of a chemical reaction running around it ?
Truth is not what it used to be.

Whose foolin' who ?
Whose foolin' who ? Well I can't believe my eyes

Whose foolin' who ?
Whose foolin' who ? Well I can't believe my eyes
Whose foolin' who ?

Whose foolin' who ?
Whose foolin' who ?
If you're fooling yourself, then whose foolin' who ?
You, yeah, I'm talking to you.

I get the feeling it ain't over
I get the feeling it ain't over 'till it's done
And my heart's beating like a drum.

I get the feeling it ain't over
I get the feeling it ain't over 'till it's done
Well my heart's bustin' with this love.

I bet you're wondering why I'm here
For the spiritual change, the transformation is clear
This is the time I've waited for all my life
There's a fire in my soul burning deep inside.

I get the feeling it ain't over 'till it's done
And my heart's beating like a drum.

I close my eyes, what do I see ?
See thousands of faces staring straight at me
I want to run, I want to hide but there's no escape
Maybe this is the way that it's supposed to be.

I get the feeling it ain't over 'till it's done
And my heart's beating like a drum.

Is the cat too fat ? Is the dude too old ?
…………… and the streets were not all gold
Was it all divine inspiration or just some silly hopes ?
You're looking for solutions but you won't be told.

I close my eyes to meditate
Is this all too much ? Is it all too little, too late ?
I feel the universe breath inside of me
Telling me this is the way that it's supposed to be.

I get the feeling it ain't over 'till it's done
And my heart's beating like a drum.

I get the feeling it ain't over
I get the feeling it ain't over 'till it's done
Well my heart's beating like a drum.

I get the feeling it ain't over
I get the feeling it ain't over 'till it's done
My heart's beating like a drum.

I get the feeling it ain't over
I get the feeling it ain't over 'till it's done
Well my heart's beating like a drum.

D. Davies

They stripped away my innocence and left me here to die
In this sad, cold realization, there are no more tears to cry
But I still believe in miracles 'cause that's all I had before
And I ain't gonna take your promises no more.

They stretched the Earth's resources and built a funeral pyre
Through the smoke the children wonder 'neith the stark and shattered sky
There is no hope or reason while the cooperations roar
Disreguarding truth and sacred law.

Can't you see we're living in the lie ?
I believed without a question why
Can't you see we're living in the lie ?
I believe, controlling all we think and see and do.

We're living a lie
We're living a lie.

They'll steal away your brightest dreams, just leaving hollow soles
To wander in this city's grime without a hope or home
The devil plays is final hand, the battle now begins
But no one without true love will ever win.

Can't you see we're living in the lie ?
I believed without a question why
Can't you see we're living in the lie
I believe, controlling all we think and see and do.

Oh can't you see we're living in the lie ?
I believed without a question why
Oh can't you see we're living in the lie ?
I believe, controlling all we see and think and do.

We're living a lie
We're living a lie
We're living a lie.

D. Davies

If you run out of luck don't give in to hate
Just find a new direction before it's too late
If you hear them knocking on my door
Just say that I'm not here, I can't take it any more
Well I'm leaving town and I won't be 'round
'Til I reach my destination, tell the world I'm underground
And it won't be long now that I've found love
Gonna search the whole world over, find a place where I belong.

Let me be, let me be for I'm innocent
Can't you see all the good that's inside of me ?
Let me be, let me be, oh I'm innocent, let me go.

I gonna walk my walk, talk my talk
Don't need no one's approval, gonna make it on my own
Gonna have my say, gonna fly away
I'll beat this burocratic nightmare and social decay, oh yeah
I've found out yeah, I found love
Gonna stick to my dreams, gonna blow this world away.

Let me be, let me be for I'm innocent
Can't you see all the good that's inside of me ?
Let me be, let me be for I'm innocent, let me go.

Let me be, let me be for I'm innocent
Can't you see all these feelings inside of me ?
Let me be, let me be for I'm innocent, let me go.

Nobody cares, nobody hears
Living in a vacuum, is anybody there ?
Someway, somehow, just got to survive
They'll never get my soul, they'll never take me alive.

Let me be, let me be for I'm innocent
Can't you see all these feelings inside of me ?
Let me be, let me be for I'm innocent, let me go.

Let me be, let me be for I'm innocent
Can't you see all the good that's inside of me ?
Let me be, let me be for I'm innocent, let me go.

D. Davies

A displaced person in a displaced land
I lost my home, lost everything you can
Tried so hard, doing the best I can
But where I am is where I stand

Your eyes are filled with greed and hate
But wherever you wander is a holy place
Where my heart loves is a sacred place
A displaced person, I know your pain

I don't understand
I'm a fugitive in my own land

Don't wanna do what they wanna
Don't wanna do what they say
Don't wanna do what they wanna
Just wanna get their way
Can you see through them?
Can you see what they do?
C'mon brother, jump in
C'mon mama, swim

The toughest race of the human face
Will not be denied in these changing times
The biggest battle is fought in the heart
Follow [?]

A displaced person, come hear the call
Destroy illusion with just your heart
On the astral and mental planes
Radiate and meditate
From the mountains and to the land
Build the future with a loving, caring hand

I don't understand
I'm a fugitive in my own land

Don't wanna do what they wanna
Don't wanna do what they say
Don't wanna do what they wanna
Just wanna get their way
Can you see through them?
Can you see what they do?
C'mon brother, jump in
C'mon mama, swim

D. Davies

In the middle of it all
There's a reason for it all
If a tear comes, let it fall
If your heart aches, give a call
If your world is falling around
And the rain keeps pouring down
Rock you, rock me, rock on
Have faith, have hope, have love

In the middle of the night
When the truth is far from clear
Don't you worry, don't you cry
A new dawn will soon be hear
Oh when they tell you everything is wrong
Just lift your head up to the sun
Rock you, rock me, rock on
Have faith, have hope, have love

Time and time again we keep making the same mistakes throughout all history
Maybe this is the chance we've all been waiting for to build a better world for you and me
There is no mystery

Rock you, rock me, rock on
Have faith, have hope, have love
Rock you, rock me, rock on
Have faith, have hope, have love

Rock you, rock on
Have faith, have hope, have love

Rock you, rock me, rock on
Have faith, have hope, have love
Rock you, rock me, rock on

Rock you, rock me, rock on
Have faith, have hope, have love
Rock you, rock me, rock on!

D.Davies-Hague

Mum would shout and scream when dad would come home drunk
When she asked him where he'd been, he'd say : 'Up the Clissold Arms'
Chatting up some huzzy but he didn't mean no harm
Sunday morning drives, just to get away
Ramsgate or Southend, it would always be a laugh
Paddling by the sea, trousers rolled up to the knees
Walking by the sea, full of dreams, eating ice cream
Grandma's burnt her cheeks getting brown, turn her over.

Oh Fortis Green, memories of days when I was young
It can only be a memory, a time that now has gone.

There's Uncle Frank tellin' stories from the war
Frightening all the kids, yet we'd heard it all before
While the bombs were droppin' round, there were parties underground
Aunt Lil's at the gin, while Mum's singing songs
From the 40's when variety, Max Miller was going strong
All the characters are gone, oh what a blooming shame
I wish that it could be like it was in the old days
Sat on Auntie's knee, toasting bread in the fire-place.

Oh Fortis Green, memories of days when I was young
Oh it can only be a memory, a time that now has gone
Oh Fortis Green, memories when I was just a lad
Collecting bottle tops, threepenny bits, fishing with my Dad.

Sister's in the doorway, snogging with her bloke
Scared to put the cat out 'cause I put him off his stroke
But she wouldn't be denied, I got a shilling as a bribe
I used to do my courting on an old kitchen chair
The girls were all so sporting but I only really cared
For my little Katie-Sue, there was nothing she wouldn't do
Sunday after tea, we would listen to the wireless
Hancock's half-hour, Luxembourg, we'd sit for hours.

Oh Fortis Green, memories of days when I was young
Oh it can only be a memory, a time that now has gone
Oh Fortis Green, memories when I was just a lad
Collecting bottle tops, threepenny bits, fishing with my Dad.

Oh it can only be a memory, a time that now has gone
Oh Fortis Green, memories when I was just a lad
Collecting bottle tops, threepenny bits, innocence is gone.

That's it.

I'm just sitting here wondering why?
(And another please)
I'm just sitting here wondering why?
Why are the stars [?], why are you here[?]
I'm just sitting here wondering why?

Why, why, why why why
Why am I asking you?
Why, why, why is the sky
Black and then it's blue?

Well you got a new house
And you got a new car
But you can't buy everything
And you cry, cry, cry
'Cause you're not satisfied
And you're wound up like a spring
'Cause you can't have everything
And you're wound up like a spring

I'm just sitting here wondering why?
[?], straighten your tie
Oh, I'm just sitting here wondering why?

Rationality, punctuality
Analytical, so typical
Scientifical, [?]
So ordinary, extraordinary
[?] chemical, so logical
Octagonal[?], woo

I'm just sitting here wondering why?
Oh, I'm just sitting here wondering why?
Press me new suit, tuck in me shirt
Straighten my tie

Why, why, you try and you try
Still you pray for more
You don't understand why it didn't go as planned
And you think your reasoning's flawed
Why, why, why why why why
I really don't know it all
You see, reason [?] what your heart really knows
So there is no "why" after all

Why do think that you always need to think
Trying hard to justify
To achieve and achieve
Always greed, greed, greed
I really don't know why
Why, why, what is this [?]
What is this, question time?

(One two three four)
I'm just sitting here wondering why?
(Keep going)
I'm just sitting here wondering why?
Press me new suit, tuck in me shirt
Straighten my tie
(Three four)
Oh, I'm just sitting here wondering why?
Got a new car, then?
Straighten your tie, what's a matter with ya?
I'm just sitting here wondering why?

What time do you call this, then?
Been picking up[?] 'ave ya?
Where ya been? What ya doin'? Who ya been wit? Where ya been?
(Eyes front!)
Where ya been? What ya doin'? Who ya been wit? Where ya been?
(Hup, two, three, four)
Where ya been? What ya doin'? Who ya been wit? Where ya been?
(Hup, two, three, four)
Where ya been? What ya doin'? Who ya been wit? Where ya been?
(Hup, two, three, four)
Where ya been? What ya doin'? Who ya been wit? Where ya been?
(Hup, two, three, four)
(Hup, two, three, four)
(Hup, two, three, four)
(Hup, two, three, four)

It came out of the sky and into my life I thought that I was in heaven
Then a voice reached out and touched my heart with a love that lasts forever.

The love that you give is more than you know but treat each other kindly
And the time will soon come when each of you will know you are all one.

It's a true phenomenon the government denies
A true phenomenon, they're telling us lies
A true phenomenon.

UFO's in the Holy Bible, every stage they come
Lift up your eyes to the skies across the sun
They looked in my mind, my life, giving it meaning
I looked to night, it vanished from sight my soul living believing.

Show them the world, there's reason for change but you can all survive it
But the time will soon come when each and everyone will see his face.

It's a true phenomenon the government denies
A true phenomenon, they're telling us lies
A true phenomenon, we will not be deceived
A true phenomenon, a known conspiracy
A true phenomenon
A true phenomenon.

UFO's in the Holy Bible, every stage they come
Lift up your eyes to the skies across the sun.

It's a true phenomenon
A true phenomenon
A true phenomenon
A true phenomenon.

There's a bug in my brain and driving me insane
There's a bug in my mind of an alien kind
All the right is all wrong and the wrong is all right
Gotta act, get it back, I'm losing my track

The last will be first and the first will be last
I got a bug in my mind of an implant kind
Got a bug in my mind of an implant kind
I'll be the bug up your arse
I'll be the bug up your arse
I'll be the bug up your ass
I'll be the bug up your ass!

Believe it
Remove it
You can't see it

Before I die, open my eyes
Let me see the world in all its wonder
Let me see clear, life without fear
Realizing the oneness of all life

Believe it
You can't see it

Alien communication
Alien communication
Neuro-transmission, triggered by electronic magnetic impulse wave
Intrusion, infusion, confusion, delusion
Who can I turn to, to find a solution?

Got a bug in my mind of an implant kind
Electronic device, and I'm paying the price
I gotta fight back, I'm-a under attack
Got a bug in my mind that's driving me wild
Got a bug in my mind of an implant kind
I'll be the bug up your arse
I'll be the bug up your arse
I'll be the bug up your ass
I'll be the bug up your ass!

Believe it
Remove it
You can't see it

Before I die, open my eyes
Let me see the world in all its wonder
Let me see clear, life without fear
Realizing the oneness of all life

Not very nice, DNA splice
Doing not what they should
It would be good if they all could
Just leave us alone

It would be good if they all would
Just leave us alone

Believe it
Remove it

D. Davies

Let me see clear, let me see clearly
Life without fear

Let me see clear, let me see clearly
Life without fear

You will come back
Life after life
Life ever after

You will come back
Life after life
Life ever after

Life after life
Life after life
Life after life

Life after life
[chanting]

D. Davies

Let me see clear, let me see clearly
Life without fear

Let me see clear, let me see clearly
Life without fear

You will come back
Life after life
Life ever after

You will come back
Life after life
Life ever after

Let me see clear, let me see clearly
Life without fear

Let me see clear, let me see clearly
Life without fear
